What goes around, surely does come back around, and style and trends are no exception to the saying. Not too long ago, the 80's and 90's were full of high-top sneakers, over-alls, and leather bombers that we had to have.

Now, these things have hit the streets again. If you want to take a trip down memory lane, but still want to keep it fresh, check out these modern offerings from today's brands. We've chosen 10 Clothing Items From Our Childhood That Are Cool Again, for that vintage look without the gross moth ball smell.
